Legal action against the Roumanian Ministry of Education in reappointing Professor Alexander Cuza to the chair of economics at the University of Jassy will be taken by the board of professors of the University.
The action is directed against Professor Cuza and Professor Liatric Sion, both of whom were dismissed by the Senate of the University, following a series of anti-Semitic disturbances as a result of their propaganda among the students.
The professors’ board particularly objects to the reappointment of Sion because his post has already been filled. The reappointment is endangering the order at the university, which remained undisturbed since their dismissal, the board contends. The Roumanian liberal press welcomes the action of the board.
